What is this Idea about?

Platform checkpoint/resume for long-running agent workloads. Agent crashes at task #387, resumes from last checkpoint (not task 1).

30-min agent task fails at minute 25. Without checkpointing: restart from scratch. With resume from last checkpoint. Saves compute + wall clock.

  • Invoice processing example: 500 invoices overnight, crash at #387, resume
  • Checkpoint strategies: per-task | per-tool-call | explicit | time-based
  • manifest.yml config for strategy + retention
  • Contrast: manual Redis/Postgres state vs platform-managed

Checklist

  • Lives in ideas/ with kebab-case filename
  • Has title in frontmatter
  • Links related ideas (per-session-sandboxes)
